Who will bear the risk responsibility for the huge property losses caused by the earthquake? Is the earthquake disaster exemption clause in the property insurance contract of insurance company valid? If the house purchased by the purchaser through mortgage is damaged or lost, is it necessary to pay the mortgage to the bank on a monthly basis? The debtor died unfortunately in the earthquake. How to deal with the relationship between creditor's rights and debts? Does the legal relationship of mortgage formed by the mortgage of real estate such as houses disappear when the collateral is damaged or lost? Are employees killed or injured in the earthquake recognized as work-related injuries? How to deal with the non-performance of public donations promised in earthquake relief? Wait a minute. In view of these problems, the school organized 1 1 legal experts to study and put forward countermeasures and suggestions to the relevant departments of the central government. These suggestions will help safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the people in the disaster areas, ensure the legal and orderly post-disaster reconstruction, and promote the stability and development of the disaster areas.
